Chapter Seventy-Four: Mutation (I)
Wan Jianyi walked into this courtyard, and for some reason, the wind that was originally blowing gently suddenly stopped, and there was silence inside and outside the courtyard. www.biquge.info Even the rhubarb, who was eating at the other end of the courtyard, was suddenly a spirit, and the hair on his whole body stood up, and then he let out a silent whimper, and retreated backwards, hiding in a bush and shivering.
In the clear sky, the sun was gently falling, but everything seemed to freeze in this courtyard all of a sudden, and as the man in white moved, everything became solemn and quiet.
Tian Buyi stood a little stiffly in place, at this moment, his mind was blank, he just gritted his teeth and subconsciously stood there, ready to meet the coming storm, but he didn't have any desire or urge to fight back.
At this moment, suddenly a figure opened his arms and suddenly stopped in front of Tian Buyi, it was Su Ru. Her face was equally pale, and there were still tears in her eyes, but her eyes were extraordinarily determined. She looked at Wan Jianyi and said loudly: "Senior Brother Wan, it's none of his business. It's all my fault, if you want to kill, kill me! ”
Wan Jianyi and Tian Buyi shook their bodies at the same time, and looked at Su Ru, only to see that this girl had gritted her teeth, and even her body was trembling slightly, but there was not even a trace of remorse in her expression.
Wan Jian looked at Su Ru, and after a long while, he said astringently: "Why, is there anything I can't compare to Senior Brother Tian?" ”
Tian Buyi gritted his teeth and lowered his head, speechless. Su Ru shook her head slowly, tears slipped down her cheeks again, and she said softly:
"No, Senior Brother Wan, you are a genius, handsome and heroic, it is not easy for him to compare with you."
"Then why are you ......?"
"But I just like him."
Wan Jian was stunned, he looked at Su Ru blankly, and after a while, he looked up and smiled bitterly, only to feel that he was speechless in this bright and vast sky.
Su Ru looked at him and said, "Senior Brother Wan, everything is my fault, don't blame him." Before today, it was not easy for him to know that you liked me, he admired you very much, and he didn't know how many times he said to me on weekdays that you were so kind to him, even if you asked him to work hard for you, he would never say a word more. ”
"It's me, it's me who broke your brotherhood, I'...... I'm a bad woman, kill me! She cried.
Wan Jian shook his head and exhaled a long breath, and then his face slowly calmed down, although in the depths of his eyes, there was still a trace of deep and incomprehensible pain.
He walked over to Tian Buyi and Su Ru.
The cool breeze suddenly rose, swept across the courtyard, and blew his white clothes like snow, a little bleak, a little solemn.
The corners of Tian Buyi's mouth twitched, and he reached over to pull Su Ru behind him, but Su Ru immediately broke free of his hand and still firmly stopped in front of Tian Buyi. That slender body, but it seems to have infinite strength and unshakable firmness, even if it is sad, even if it is life and death, no one can confuse my heart.
If you want to hurt him, kill me first!
This scene is like a wind and a frost sword, always making people bloody in the vicissitudes of the years but there is no bloodstain, Wan Jian looked up to the sky and sighed, stopped, and then whispered to Su Ru: "You get out of the way, I have a few words to say to Senior Brother Tian." ”
Su Ru's lips trembled a few times, as if she was still a little scared and frightened, but at this moment, a generous and gentle hand stretched out from behind her back, and Tian Buyi said softly: "Don't worry, if Senior Brother Wan really wants to kill me, no one in the world can stop it." ”
Su Ru turned her head and looked at Tian Buyi in a daze, and then watched Tian Buyi walk in front of Wan Jianyi. His face was still pale, he was silent, he looked at Wan Jianyi quietly, and then lowered his head and shouted, "Senior Brother Wan." ”
Wan Jian stretched out his hand to him, Su Ru's body on the side trembled slightly, she bit her lip tightly, her eyes fixed on the palm.
After a while, Wan Jianyi put his hand on Tian Buyi's shoulder, Tian Buyi's body was motionless, just slowly raised his head again, looking at Wan Jianyi.
It was a familiar face, handsome and chic, heroic and generous, and there was an innate freedom and uninhibitedness, which made people subconsciously admire. It was this man who took the four of them to fight thousands of miles, going deep into the wilderness, and the difficulties and dangers along the way seemed to be idle, smiling proudly in the wind, frost, rain and snow, and crisscrossing the desert magic mountain.
How many times of life and death, how many times of desperate struggle, blood and sword light, and laughter, it seems that it never stops.
Even the hand on his shoulder seemed to have a familiar aura.
Tian Buyi gritted his teeth, and suddenly turned his head away, his chest began to rise and fall violently, his mouth began to choke, there were tears in the corners of his eyes but he tried his best to endure it, he whispered in a hoarse voice: "Senior Brother Wan, I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"
Wan Jianyi shook his head, looked at him calmly, and then said, "Senior Brother Tian, you didn't feel sorry for me for anything. After a pause, he glanced at Su Ru who was standing aside, and then said: "Senior Sister Su is a good woman, she is kind at heart, Lan Xinhui is good, you promise me one thing, in the future, you must treat her well." ”
Tian Buyi gritted his teeth fiercely, wiped his face with his hand, and said, "I will." ”
Wan Jian nodded slightly, then glanced at Su Ru deeply, then turned around and walked up.
Heaven and earth, white clothes like snow, he walked straight, walked boldly and freely, as if this trip was just a casual encounter, casual visit, as if this was just a short stay in life, saw the most beautiful spring, saw a drunken red flower.
There was still a longer way to go, so he quickly strode forward.
The spring sun sprinkled on his body, adding a few golden rays to the white clothes, like a fairy man, leaving mundane things behind.
It's just that no one can see the loneliness and depression in his eyes.
※※※
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed in a hurry, and it was the day before the Qingyunmen Seven Veins Martial Arts Conference.
On the morning of this day, Dao Xuan made an appointment with Wan Jianyi and went to the ancestral hall of the patriarch on the mountain behind Tongtian Peak again, respectfully inviting Master Tianchengzi to leave the customs and prepare to preside over tomorrow's conference celebration.
Walking along the mountain road along the way, the ancient wood forest was full of greenery, and after walking for a while, Dao Xuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, turned his head and glanced at Wan Jianyi, and said, "Senior brother, why have you been so silent recently, but has something happened?" ”
Wan Jianyi shook his head, smiled at Dao Xuanqiang, and then said, "I'm fine, thank you senior brother for your concern." ”
Dao Xuan nodded, didn't ask much, and soon, the two walked to the main hall of the ancestral hall.
Standing outside the hall, the two saluted to the hall together, and then said loudly: "Master, disciples Dao Xuan and Wan Jian ask to see." ”
After a few moments, a low, hoarse voice came from the dim hall, "What's the matter?" ”
Dao Xuan was stunned for a moment, only to feel that this voice seemed to be slightly different from the previous times, but Wan Jianyi didn't pay attention to it, anyway, listening to the sound was indeed Tianchengzi, so he took a step forward and said: "Master, tomorrow is the day of the Seven Veins Martial Arts Conference, and my senior brother and I have specially come here to ask you to move to the Yuqing Palace, and we will preside over the ceremony tomorrow." ”
Tianchengzi was silent for a while, but said slowly: "I've been unwell recently, and it's not suitable to travel far to see the light, so I won't go." I'll leave it all to the two of you. ”
Dao Xuan and Wan Jian were both shocked, Dao Xuan's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Master, please forgive the disciple for speaking bluntly." Since the battle between the righteous and demons of Qingyun Mountain, the master has been in retreat here for a long time, and he has never seen outsiders, and there are many discussions about it in the door. After all, you are the head of my Qingyun, where the center of gravity is, if you don't show up, then Qingyun will be difficult to decide after all. I implore Master to think about the foundation of Qingyunmen, and it is good to pass it once tomorrow. ”
Tianchengzi snorted coldly and said, "If you don't go, you just don't go!" ”
Dao Xuan was stunned, and then begged bitterly, but Tianchengzi just didn't allow it, even if Dao Xuan said everything reasonably, he ignored it. At the end, he even yelled impatiently and shouted, "Get out! ”
Dao Xuan knelt on the ground, his face was like ashes, and Wan Jianyi was stunned, as if for the first time he had found that his master had completely become another person he didn't know.
After Chengzi scolded Dao Xuan that day, Wan Jianyi finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Master, how can you insult Senior Brother so much, don't you know, these days, Senior Brother has been shouldering the heavy responsibility of the entire Qingyun alone, and he has worked hard day and night to let my Qingyun Sect get rid of the decline and regain its vitality." Master, you, you ......"
Before the words fell, I suddenly heard a broken cry in the main hall of the ancestral hall, like a demon beast roaring, full of sinister murderous intent, the darkness churned like a tide, and a voice came over coldly, saying: "That is the case, could it be that the two of you want to take the position of the head of the old man?" ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an instant silence inside and outside the ancestral hall, and the wind stopped the leaves from falling, which was full of solemn meaning.
Dao Xuan and Wan Jian were pale, and they were speechless for a while.
After a while, Dao Xuan was the first to react, grabbed Wan Jian and knelt on the ground, and then kowtowed desperately, making a few muffled noises on the ground, and at the same time wailed: "Master, Master, disciples, etc. have no such intentions. Our two brothers have been cultivated by the master since childhood, and their kindness is like a mountain. ”
In the main hall, he sneered again and again, but he didn't answer.
Dao Xuan knelt on the ground, kneeled forward, climbed to the threshold of the hall in a few steps, held the threshold with tears in his eyes, and shouted to the hall: "Master, everything is up to your old man, I only ask you to ...... Take care of yourself, take care of yourself, and think about it for our Qingyun family. ”
There was a bit of poignancy in this shout, which was moving, and Wan Jianyi watched Dao Xuan's actions from the side, and he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so he had to turn his head.
However, at the moment when he turned his head, a strong wind suddenly came out of the hall, cold and fierce, and hit Dao Xuan's body directly like a heavy hammer.
Dao Xuan screamed, and the whole person flew backwards, with a "bang", and fell heavily on the ground seven or eight steps away!
